Mystycals







MYSTYCALS.......Have arrived in living color! This is just a small sample of what is to come to Roadsend and it is indeed a destination for the imagination!
The Humpty Dumpty was a personal challenge that came in a calendar of a fabulous artist , Daniel Merriam, and his calendar, Art of Dreams 2007. This one is a keeper!

The cats are my interpretation of the Cheshire Cat from Alice in Wonderland. The catepillars on the mushrooms are also my takes on Alice in Wonderland characters. I have made over seven sets of these two characters with each being just a slight deviation from the other. With such a unique character to interpret, it has been fun to try a wide spectrum of characteristics for these creatures!
The dragons are a very small sample of the mythylogical creatures I so enjoy. These are just the basic versions, not even painted as they fired in a unique banded finish although the clay was perfectly plain flesh toned when I formed them!
There will be more to come as my profeciency with this medium improves. In the mean time, I hope you enjoy the view of a small corner of my world I call Mystycals!

I am a crafter/artist who has found a world of enjoyment in polymer clay! After spending years playing with the medium, I was pleased to discover that people were willing to pay for my creations and I began creating for special orders. I was quick to explain that if it were physically possible, I could probably create whatever was desired. Their imagination was their only limitation! As soon as I become more prolific with downloading pictures from my camera, I will be posting some of my creations in living color! Mystycals was established as a catch all title for any and all of the creatures that I create. After several craft shows and the local Farmers Market, I have arrived at this destination! Stay tuned for future events and happenings!
